Fatty acids are merely carboxylic acids with long hydrocarbon chains. The hydrocarbon chain length may vary from 10-30 carbons (most usual is 12-18). Fatty acids cannot be hydrolyzed further.
A triglyceride will give a single molecule of fatty acid when hydrolyzed through the process of lipolysis. Triglycerides consist of three fatty acid molecules attached to a glycerol molecule. Upon hydrolysis, one fatty acid is released along with glycerol.
A monounsaturated fat
The balanced equation for the reaction between a fatty acid (such as oleic acid) and sodium hydroxide is: Fatty acid + Sodium hydroxide -> Soap (sodium salt of the fatty acid) + Water
Yes, a sodium fatty acid salt is a type of carboxylic acid salt. Fatty acids are carboxylic acids with long hydrocarbon chains, and when they react with a base like sodium hydroxide, they form carboxylic acid salts such as sodium fatty acid salts.
To neutralize NaBH4, it can be safely hydrolyzed with water or diluted acid, such as acetic acid. This will result in the formation of boric acid and hydrogen gas, allowing for safer disposal. Always handle NaBH4 with caution and refer to specific guidelines for neutralization procedures.

transported across fat cell membranes by fatty acid binding proteins
I believe brown fat (commonly found in neonates) is metabolized by lipase into free fatty acids which are then hydrolyzed into glycerol and non estrified fatty acids.
When a glycerophospholipid is completely hydrolyzed, it yields glycerol, fatty acids, phosphate, and a nitrogen-containing base (such as choline, ethanolamine, or serine). These products play important roles in various cellular processes, including membrane structure and signaling.
No, it's not a fatty acid or essential fatty acid.
Free fatty acids which occur in plasma as a result of lipolysis in adipose tissue or when plasma triacylglycerols are taken into tissues.
Propionic acis is not a fatty acid.
A monounsaturated fat
Nucleic Acid
The difference between a hydrocarbon and a fatty acid is that a fatty acid is a hydrocarbon chain with a carboxylic acid head.
No one fatty acid is volatile.
fatty acid is the answer
